A Motegi la consacrazione di Marc Marquez dopo cinque anni di calvario, e Ducati festeggia anche con Bagnaia vincente. Alex indietro, Honda sul podio con Mir e Aprilia quarta col Bez. Ancora out Martin (clavicola). Le nostre analisi del GP. Difficile immaginare una domenica così perfetta per Ducati e per festeggiare il nono titolo del 93, due volte secondo. Per un campionissimo come Marc è la fine di un lungo incubo, ma a cosa si deve il recupero prodigioso di Pecco, capace di vincere tutto dopo la pole? Che non fosse soltanto un problema psicologico eravamo tra i pochi a dirlo, ma adesso si può capire cosa è stato fatto sulla moto del 63 nei test di Misano? E gli ultimi nove giri di ansia con il fumo allo scarico? Questa sera le nostre risposte con Giulio Bernardelle. Il GP del Giappone ha mostrato una grande Honda sulla pista di casa e un Mir in palla. In difficoltà la Yamaha. Tra i protagonisti Acosta, Morbidelli, soprattutto Marco Bezzecchi: falciato subito da Martin (clavicola rotta) nella Sprint, ha recuperato (dolorante) fino al quarto posto domenica. Perché così male Diggia e Bastianini? Nelle altre classi vittorie di Holgado in Moto 2 e di Munoz in Moto3, con Rueda vicino al titolo. A fine settimana subito l'Indonesia.Diventa un supporter di questo podcast: https://www.spreaker.com/podcast/dopogp-motogp-moto-it--4070022/support.

Die Spaanse Ducati-renjaer Marc Márquez het sy sewende MotoGP-wêreldkampioenskap by die Japannese Grand Prix verseker, sy eerste sedert 2019. Die 32-jarige het in Motegi tweede agter sy spanmaat, Francesco Bagnaia, geëindig om die titel te beklink. Honda se Joan Mir was in die derde plek. Brad Binder van Suid-Afrika was 12de. Márquez, wat 11 oorwinnings hierdie seisoen behaal het en sy kampioenskapsvoorsprong tot 201 punte bo sy broer Álex gerek het, sê geestelik was dit die moeilikste titel om te behaal:

Dopo la pole, è arrivata la vittoria di Francesco Bagnaia nella Sprint del GP del Giappone a Motegi e tutti ci siamo domandati: cosa è cambiato.Ne parlando Paolo, Carletto e Matteo.

Francesco Bagnaia ha fatto l'Hat Trick centrando la pole e vincendo Sprint e GP del Giappone, ma al di là della felicità per Pecco i riflettori sono stati tutti puntati sul grandioso ritorno di Marc Marquez che ha vinto il suo nono titolo, il 7° in MotoGP. Un risultato che gli ha fatto dire di essere in pace con sé stesso dopo i terribili quattro anni di passione e operazioni.Ne parlano, discutendo animatamente, Carletto, Paolo e Matteo per cercare di capire non tanto ciò che ha fatto Marc, ma cosa ha riportato in alto Bagnaia.

El programa del lunes con Jesús Gallego: el inicio de la segunda semana europea, el post del derbi madrileño entre Atlético y Real Madrid, el resto de la jornada europea, el aplazamiento del Valencia-Oviedo, resto de fútbol, la Ryder Cup de golf, la victoria del Valencia Basket en la Supercopa de baloncesto y Marc Márquez, campeón en Motegi.

Desde el circuito de Motegi sumamos a Pol Espargaró a nuestro Hospitality para analizar qué supone el noveno título mundial de Marc Márquez, que trasciende las fronteras del Motociclismo y es una de las grandes gestas deportivas de la historia.

De fans moesten er vroeg voor opstaan, maar voor degenen die dat deden kregen er een prachtige race voor terug. Het MotoGP-circus was in Motegi voor de GP van Japan. Joan Mir pakte zijn eerste podium sinds 2021, 'Pecco' Bagnaia domineerde weer eens ouderwets een race, waarbij we toch een aardig tijdje ons hart moesten vasthouden door zijn rokende motor; en Marc Márquez pakte zijn zevende wereldtitel in de MotoGP, waarvan overigens zijn vierde titel op Motegi. De comeback completed, zoals de MotoGP dat zo mooi bracht. We blikten erop terug met Ziggo Sport Racing analist Joey Litjens. Presentatie: Robert Denneman

We've got a new champion! We all knew it was going to happen, but it's still magical to see: Marc Marquez completes his comeback by securing the world title, and nobody was able to do a thing about it. Tell you what, somebody should write a book about the guy...But while Ducati has one hell of a reason to throw a party, they also have reason to worry. Because what was going on with Bagnaia's bike? It seems to finally be doing what its rider wants it to do, but what causes it? Did Ducati roll back to a previous model? Is that even possible? And what about (here they come!) the conspiracy theories? Well, guess we have plenty to talk about today. So press that button and cheers! Want more? Visit our website or support us on Patreon.

Jim and Rich review MotoGP Round 16 from Misano in Italy. This was Marc Marquez's first shot at 2025 title glory. In the end, a crash in the Sprint Race meant the title bid moved on to Motegi but this allowed Marco Bezzecchi to shine on an Aprilia which is rapidly becoming a match for the GP25 Ducati. Elsewhere, Moto3 served up the usual close battles, whilst the Moto2 race proved slightly less eventful. Aside from the MotoGP weekend action, the lads talk through Yamaha V4 related listener feedback (thanks Jake) and the latest in 2026 rider contract news.

El GP de San Marino fue una auténtica triturado de emociones para el líder del Mundial de MotoGP, que se cayó el sábado, sufrió el acoso de los fans italianos, cocinó una 'venganza' y se liberó con una celebración icónico al más puro estilo Messi. Dentro de una semana arrancará en Motegi el Gran Premio de Japón, la 17ª parada de un calendario previsto este año a 22 carreras y un fin de semana en el que Marc Márquez puede cerrar el campeonato 2025 sumando su séptima corona de MotoGP y la novena de campeón del mundo. Antes de eso, el piloto de Ducati tuvo que pasar una especie de viacrucis en Misano, donde el sábado perdió la pole a manos de Marco Bezzecchi, al que trató de pelear la victoria en la sprint y acabó rodando por los suelos, una caída que fue celebrada y vitoreada por una gran parte de los aficionados en las gradas, incluso del entorno más íntimo de Valentino Rossi. Uri Puigdemont, Germán Garcia Casanova y Alberto Gómez analizan en una nueva entrega del podcast MotoGP 'Por Orejas', el 'hate' que recibió Marc en el abarrotado paddock del circuito italiano, lleno de fans de gorra y bandera, que le acosaron y trataron de intimidar. El odio siguió en las redes sociales y fue en ellas donde Márquez encontró la mejor vendetta posible: recuperar la confianza, ganar la carrera y 'mandar callar' a todo el circuito al estilo Messi, con una celebración icónica que se mantendrá en la memoria colectiva durante años. Además, con el triunfo del pasado domingo, Márquez llegará a Motegi dentro de unos días con una clara bola de campeonato. 'Solo' deberá sumar tres puntos más que su hermano Alex Márquez, segundo de la general, para ser campeón del mundo. Otro tema que merece un debate en el podcast de Motorsport.com es el crecimiento espectacular de Marco Bezzecchi y su Aprilia, ahora mismo el gran outsider de Marc con permiso de un siempre fiable Alex Márquez. Precisamente Gresini ha confirmado que en 2026 se rascará el bolsillo y ofrecerá al segundo de la general una moto último modelo de la casa de Bolonia. El motor V4 de Yamaha, el test de lunes en Misano y, sobre todo, la decisión de Dorna de separar drásticamente las estadísticas de títulos y victorias de la categoría MotoGP del resto, condimentan la polémica de un nuevo debate en tu podcast de confianza.

On the podcast this week, we review the San Marino Grand Prix and the brilliance of Marc Marquez, as he sets up his title chance in Motegi. The wonderful performance of Aprilia's Marco Bezzecchi, Pecco's struggles get even worse....

Dopo la caduta nella Sprint di ieri, Marc Marquez ha ripreso il suo cammino trionfale con la vittoria al Gran premio di San Marino e della Riviera di Rimini, 16esima prova del mondiale che, con tutta probabilità, lo incoronerà vincitore al prossimo appuntamento, tra due settimane, a Motegi, in Giappone.

Toshimitsu Motegi, former secretary-general of the Liberal Democratic Party, announced his candidacy Wednesday for the leadership of the Japanese ruling party.

Former Liberal Democratic Party Secretary-General Toshimitsu Motegi on Monday told reporters that he plans to run in the next leadership election of the Japanese ruling party.

About 10 Liberal Democratic Party lawmakers who were members of the now-defunct intraparty faction led by former LDP Secretary-General Toshimitsu Motegi agreed at a meeting on Friday to request an early party leadership election.

The malaise from Motegi was carried away by the Phillip Island breeze for what was another enthralling chapter of 2024 MotoGP. A little bit more tension with just three rounds to go this season.

Jim and Rich discuss all the action from Motegi. The first World Championship had been handed out to David Alonso! The Moto3 champ won this title in style by winning in true Alonso style. He was as far back as ninth in this race but road through the pack late in the race to win by half a second. The Moto2 race provided all the drama this weekend as a rain shower just after the start caused a red flag. It was anybodies guess on wether to use rains or slicks, but championship leader Ogura with he courage of his convictions went on slicks. He quickly fell back to 14th but the as he put heat into his slicks they came good and he powered through the field to lead. In fact six riders started on slicks and all would finish in the top six! Ogura riding smart let Gonzales take the win. Ogura now leads Garcia by sixty points. MotGp was a mixed bag as Marc was denied pole because of track limits and this promoted Acosta to his first pole position in the top class. All eyes were on Acosta in both the sprint and the Sunday race as he was heavily favored to win both. Lady Luck is a cruel mistress and she took both wins away in the form of two front end low-sides. Bagnaia benefited the most as he won both races with championship rival Martin finishing fourth in the sprint and second in the Sunday race. Bagnaia took fourteen points out of Martin's lead and now sits just ten points behind. The guys (well Jim mostly) got all geeked out on are contrails fuel consumption and flywheels. Its heavy engineering geek speak that had Richard's eyes glazing over!

Just when he needs points the most, Pecco Bagnaia finds them. A little bit of speed, a little bit of strategy and a little bit of luck get him the double. I recap all of the MotoGP action in Motegi, look at the Championship picture, and give my take on the JapaneseGP!The Rundown:- Qualifying: even when Marc doesn't make a mistake, he makes a mistake. But Martin makes a bigger one- Sprint Race: one more rider tosses a win into the gravel trap with and unforced error- Pecco gets lucky, Marc and Martin move up- MotoGP Race: where was the action?- Acosta continues to tease us- Another pair of big comebacks- Pecco puts it all together- Other impressive riders - including Morbidelli on the move- The MotoGP Championship - things are fun again - I'll tell you who has the advantage- My take on the JapaneseGPWhat did you think of Motegi?

They get to talk a little history, bike development, tyres, that first MGP win in Qatar last year and even how MotoGP downtime works in what is an unbelievably long and pressurised season. Fabio is such a calm and humble guy and a true pleasure to have spoken with. Enormous thanks to Fabio, as well as to Laura and Pol from the VR46 team for making this interview happen.

Adam and David call Neil in Motegi to go over the news and talking points from a static Japanese Grand Prix where the numbers went up for one rider, mistakes carried a heavy cost and we saw one major celebration.

A lot can happen in 40 minutes, but if that was the case today then it surely happened somewhere else than Twin Ring Motegi. We can't blame Bagnaia, of course: the man is here to win. Perfection is not entertaining, but pretty impressive. So yes, it was a boring race. But that doesn't mean nothing happened - it just all happened within the little details.

Jim and Rich are back to keep track of the MotoGP championship as the current triple header hits its mid-point at the Mandalika International Circuit in Indonesia. The guys run through listener feedback and news before jumping in to talk through the 4 races. It was a hot and sticky round with crashes, blow ups and a continuation of the Bagnaia-Martin to and fro at the head of the championship. With Indonesia done, the MGP circus heads this weekend to Motegi in Japan. The guys also touch on the WSBK races from Aragon as Toprak returned and eked out a small championship lead again. Noteworthy was the return to the winners enclosure for Andre Iannone who became the 14th rider to secure wins in both MotoGP and WSBK.

But if you must know, we'll let Cartman explain it to you...Okay, so now about the track we're actually racing on this weekend! Actually, let's just let Peter explain it, because he does a bang-up job of it. Take it away, Peter! (Oh, and as always: don't forget to pull up our map of the circuit!)Want more?
